Fidelity decay in interacting two-level boson systems: Freezing and revivals

We study the fidelity decay in the $k$-body embedded ensembles of random matrices for bosons distributed in two single-particle states, considering the reference or unperturbed Hamiltonian as the one-body terms and the diagonal part of the $k$-body embedded ensemble of random matrices, and the perturbation as the residual off-diagonal part of the interaction. We calculate the ensemble-averaged fidelity with respect to an initial random state within linear response theory to second order on the perturbation strength, and demonstrate that it displays the freeze of the fidelity. During the freeze, the average fidelity exhibits periodic revivals at integer values of the Heisenberg time $t_H$. By selecting specific $k$-body terms of the residual interaction, we find that the periodicity of the revivals during the freeze of fidelity is an integer fraction of $t_H$, thus relating the period of the revivals with the range of the interaction $k$ of the perturbing terms. Numerical calculations confirm the analytical results.

Fidelity decay of the two-level bosonic embedded ensembles of Random Matrices

We study the fidelity decay of the $k$-body embedded ensembles of random matrices for bosons distributed over two single-particle states. Fidelity is defined in terms of a reference Hamiltonian, which is a purely diagonal matrix consisting of a fixed one-body term and includes the diagonal of the perturbing $k$-body embedded ensemble matrix, and the perturbed Hamiltonian which includes the residual off-diagonal elements of the $k$-body interaction. This choice mimics the typical mean-field basis used in many calculations. We study separately the cases $k=2$ and $3$. We compute the ensemble-averaged fidelity decay as well as the fidelity of typical members with respect to an initial random state. Average fidelity displays a revival at the Heisenberg time, $t=t_H=1$, and a freeze in the fidelity decay, during which periodic revivals of period $t_H$ are observed. We obtain the relevant scaling properties with respect to the number of bosons and the strength of the perturbation. For certain members of the ensemble, we find that the period of the revivals during the freeze of fidelity occurs at fractional times of $t_H$. These fractional periodic revivals are related to the dominance of specific $k$-body terms in the perturbation.

Nearest-Neighbor Distributions and Tunneling Splittings in Interacting Many-Body Two-Level Boson Systems

We study the nearest-neighbor distributions of the $k$-body embedded ensembles of random matrices for $n$ bosons distributed over two-degenerate single-particle states. This ensemble, as a function of $k$, displays a transition from harmonic oscillator behavior ($k=1$) to random matrix type behavior ($k=n$). We show that a large and robust quasi-degeneracy is present for a wide interval of values of $k$ when the ensemble is time-reversal invariant. These quasi-degenerate levels are Shnirelman doublets which appear due to the integrability and time-reversal invariance of the underlying classical systems. We present results related to the frequency in the spectrum of these degenerate levels in terms of $k$, and discuss the statistical properties of the splittings of these doublets.
